AT&T CEO RANDALL STEPHENSON MAY have recently opened his mouth and let it slip that Apple plans to release a 3G iPhone in 2008, but it fits into Apple's strategy to create marketing hype well before a product launch.At a meeting of the Churchill Club in Santa Clara, Calif., Stephenson told reporters that a 3G version of the iPhone would become available next year. The San Antonio, Texas-based carrier exclusively supports the iPhone in the U.S. Analysts say consumers have been less than satisfied with the data speeds on AT&T's Edge network, and are anticipating significant improvements to performance as the carrier continues to roll out the 3G network across the United States.
